Rivers & Streams
Tucker County’s pristine rivers and streams offer a diverse range of angling opportunities. Our countless springs feed boundless miles of streams. While some of these waters are easily accessible, others can only be accessed by the most enthusiastic anglers.
Paddles & Poles
When it comes to water sports, take your family whitewater rafting with one of our local outfitters. The Cheat, Dry Fork, and Laurel Fork Rivers offer a ton of excitement. Not tame enough? There are canoe and kayak float trips available on quieter waters.
The rugged Blackwater Canyon is one of the region’s premier, yet unsung, trout fisheries. The Canyon is a “catch and release” area that is known for large and plentiful fish. The upstream sections of the Blackwater, most of the Dry Fork, Laurel Fork, Glady Fork and numerous other mountain streams and rivers are stocked for your fishing enjoyment.

The brook trout is the only trout species native to West Virginia streams. Native brook trout live and reproduce in only the coldest and purest of our mountain streams. In 1973 it was selected to be the official state fish of West Virginia!
